Proposal: Smuggling

Passed 2-1

Adminned at 23 Mar 2007 07:48:11 UTC

Add a Smuggling sub-rule to the Iron Curtain:

The following territories are construed to be both “Behind the Iron Curtain” and in “The Free World”: BHM, BAL (Baltic Sea), GOB (Gulf of Bothnia), BRN (Barents Sea), ADR (Adriatic Sea), WBS (Western Black Sea), EBS (Eastern Black Sea) and CAS (Caspian Sea).

They are construed to be “Behind the Iron Curtain” if the Agent moving into them has done so from a territory “Behind the Iron Curtain”, and in “The Free World” if the Agent moving into them has done so from a territory in “The Free World”.

If an agent is in one of these territories, and the Territory is “Behind the Iron Curtain”, e may move into a Territory in “The Free Word” if e spends 2 Sea Tickets, instead of the usual One, before doing so. If an agent is in one of these territories, and the Territory is in “The Free World”, e may move into a Territory “Behind the Iron Curtain” if e spends 2 Sea Tickets, instead of the usual One, before doing so.

If Proposal: Red Sea has failed, add “WHI (White Sea)” to the list of territories in the sub-rule created as above.

against The Iron Curtain is supposed to be a Big Deal—and, at any rate, there are already plenty of ways to get across it: Checkpoint Charlie; passports; other appropriate Gadgets; and so forth.  This proposal makes it too easy to get across.

I disagree. And it’s another way of giving up info about an agent’s location.

imperial The idea fits, but I’m torn between the two sides of the argument.
